The signing of the peace and reconciliation agreement in Mali, scheduled for 15 May in Bamako, will open a “new page” in the history of this country, which is seeking stability, security and development.

Signed in Algiers on March 1st by the government of Mali and the political-military groups of Northern Mali, under the supervision of the international mediation, led by Algeria, the peace and reconciliation agreement is the fruit of a long negotiation process launched in July 2014.

The peace agreement, which will be signed with the support of the international community and with the participation of all Malian stakeholders, will allow Malians themselves, with the support of the international community, to change the situation in Mali,” he added.

In this regard, Lamamra underlined Algeria’s contribution to the inclusive inter-Malian dialogue process, adding that the signing of the agreement by the Malian parties will mark the beginning of its implementation.
